"Wake up old man!" Vader yelled back-handing Obi-Wan. "Who were you talking to?" He demanded.
"No one…"came Obi-Wan's reply.
"Liar!" He hit Obi-Wan hard again. Obi-Wan started feeling faint. "I will ask you one last time who were you talking to! Was it my son?" Obi-Wan tried to keep his expression the same. "Fine if you won't tell me I will just have to find out for myself!" Obi-Wan tried moving his head to escape Vader's touch. In the end Vader roughly grabbed his head and put his finger's to Obi-Wan's temple.
"I was talking to Kermit the Frog!" he kept thinking over and over.
"You were talking to Kermit the Frog? FROM THE MUPPETS?" Vader asked.
"Is there any other?" Obi-Wan replied.
"So you've learned how to keep me from learning the truth," Vader said. Obi-Wan stayed silent. "But I am figuring that it was my son since he is the only Jedi left…unless maybe you figured out how to talk to past Jedi, Qui-Gon perhaps."
"I was not talking to anyone!" Obi-Wan almost screamed.
"Perhaps, but next time you have a little chat with my son, tell him I am waiting." What ever color was left in Obi-Wan's face completely drained away. Two stormtroopers removed the shackles that binded Obi-Wan to the table and put him in restraints.
"Where are you taking me?" Obi-Wan asked.
"To your new Master," Vader replied and they headed off to the Emperor.
MEANWHILE
Luke was lying on his cot staring up at the ceiling. He kept thinking about old Ben, but when Luke talked to him, he didn't seem old but a younger Obi-Wan. Luke knew that, that was impossible, but something in the back of his mind told him it to be true.
"How am I supposed to save him, if I don't know where he is?" He asked himself.
"The Force will be with you, always" Luke remembered those last words Obi-Wan said to him. Luke soon felt himself crying. Obi-Wan was probably in a great deal of pain, all because of him! Obi-Wan was being tortured because he was the bait for Luke.
"Luke?" Leia asked stepping into his room. "What's wrong?" She sat down next to him.
"It's Ben…"
"I know its difficult but he is…"
"No!" Luke almost screamed. "He isn't gone, Vader has him!" Leia gasped. "He is holding Ben as a trap for me!"
"Why?" Leia asked concerndly.
"I don't know," Luke said. "But I can't just sit around here waiting!" He got up.
"Where are you going? You don't even know where Ben is!" Leia said.
"I don't know, but I will find him," he left Leia alone with her thoughts as he walked off to find a two person fighter. He would not come back alone.
BACK TO OBI-WAN
"Ah…Obi-Wan Kenobi!" Emperor Palpatine said with a smug grin on his old wrinkly face.
"Chancellor Palpatine," Obi-Wan replied stressing Chancellor. Palpatine's grin vanished.
"That name no longer has any meaning to me." It took a lot of strength for him not to just kill Obi-Wan right then and there. "Vader tells me you have been communicating with young Skywalker."
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Obi-Wan said calmly.
"Cut the bullshit Kenobi! We know you have been telling Luke to stay away!" Palpatine said getting angry.
"I don't even know where we are! So how could I be telling Luke to stay away?" Obi-Wan asked.
"Why, you don't recognize this place?" Palpatine asked and Obi-Wan shook his head. Palpatine signaled to the window and Obi-Wan looked outside. He recognized the scenery instantly. They were in the Jedi Temple! Obi-wan gasped. "Yes the same place you've grown to know and love will be the same place you will die! Ironic? Vader take him away!" Vader led him out. "Oh and Kenobi! Tell Luke we're waiting for him!" Palpatine called and Obi-Wan's blood turned to ice.
Vader roughly led Obi-Wan back to his cell.
"Force please don't let Luke find me!" Obi-Wan begged the Force. Obi-Wan went over to his 'cot' and started meditating.
